Perplexity releases R1 1776, a post-trained, unbiased version of DeepSeek-R1
DeepSeek-R1 1776 Breaks Censorship Limits and Provides Accurate Answers on Sensitive Topics
Isabella V19 February 2025

 

DeepSeek-R1 1776 is an advanced version of the DeepSeek-R1 model designed to ensure unbiased and uncensored responses. Through a complex post-training process, the model has been optimized to address sensitive issues with accuracy and neutrality.

Key points:

  • Transparency and accuracy: The model has been improved to avoid responses influenced by political bias or censorship.
  • Market impact: Economic and geopolitical risk analysis provides realistic predictions of the effects of global events.
  • Methodological approach: Training included a multilingual dataset with 40,000 prompts on censored topics.
  • Retention of skills: The model retains its mathematical and reasoning skills despite the removal of censorship.


DeepSeek-R1 1776 represents a significant step toward truly neutral and accessible AI. The evolution of this model stemmed from the need to overcome the limitations of the original version of DeepSeek-R1, which showed an obvious reluctance to deal with topics considered sensitive or politically sensitive, particularly those censored by the Chinese Communist Party. One of the most emblematic examples concerns the issue of Taiwan independence and its impact on Nvidia’s actions: while the standard version of R1 provided a response adherent to the official Chinese narrative, R1 1776 was designed to offer a neutral, evidence-based assessment. Detailed analysis of the economic and geopolitical repercussions of a possible declaration of independence by Taiwan reveals how such an event could have profound consequences on global supply chains, especially in the semiconductor sector. With 90 percent of advanced chip production concentrated in Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), any instability in the region would jeopardize the flow of essential components for companies such as Nvidia. Military or economic escalation could result in export restrictions, sanctions, or infrastructure damage, undermining Nvidia’s ability to maintain its technological leadership. Geopolitical instability would affect the financial market, causing panic selling of Nvidia’s stock and a decline in the market value of the entire technology sector. The DeepSeek-R1 1776 model has been refined through a rigorous post-training process to ensure that its responses are not biased by censorious policies. To achieve this goal, approximately 300 topics subject to censorship were identified and used to create a multilingual classifier that could automatically identify questions potentially subject to filtering. The data collection included only prompts for which users had provided explicit consent, excluding any personal information. The final dataset, consisting of 40,000 multilingual prompts, allowed the model to be trained through Nvidia’s NeMo 2.0 platform, ensuring effective censorship removal without compromising the analytical capabilities of the model. To verify sustained performance, extensive testing was conducted on more than 1,000 examples covering sensitive topics, with evaluations performed by both human annotators and judges based on advanced LLM models. The results confirmed that R1 1776 maintains the quality of the original model in terms of reasoning and accuracy, without presenting the limitations associated with censorship.

With this innovation, it paves the way for a more reliable AI, capable of transparently and objectively answering users’ questions without filters or external influences.
